If you’re looking to make the jump to OLED on a budget, then we have a deal for you.<\/p>\n
The five-star, 48-inch LG C5 is now available at Hughes for \u00a3781<\/a>. That’s a bargain price for such a high-performing OLED, and ideal for those wanting a World Cup TV for a small room, or looking to experience the incredible contrast and inky blacks of OLED for under a grand.<\/p>\n That’s the lowest price we’ve seen for this model, and a good \u00a3618 off the price we tested it at. You’ll have to use a code to get this discount, however. The code ‘HUGMAY8’ will get you an extra eight per cent saving to unlock this price.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today’s best LG OLED evo AI C5 48-inch TV 2025 deals<\/p>\n The LG<\/a> C5 won three What Hi-Fi? Awards during our most recent ceremony, so it’s safe to say our expert testing team were fans.<\/p>\n World Cup fans will be glad to hear that we found the set to be impressively bright and detailed, with composed motion handling as shown during our viewing of Dune: Part Two.<\/p>\n “The desert retains its sparkle, with the brightest part of the sky shining in a way OLEDs this price from even a few years ago can\u2019t, but with significantly more detail,” our LG C5 48-inch review<\/a> reads.<\/p>\n “Bright shading is strong, too, with a wonderful hue of blue transitioning to orange across the image.”<\/p>\n The LG C5 was also our Award winner for the Best gaming TV, and it’s easy to see why. The C5 is packed out with four full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1<\/a> sockets capable of handling 4K\/165Hz signals, as well as VRR and ALLM. There is also support for Dolby Vision<\/a> gaming for Xbox<\/a> Series X\/S owners.<\/p>\n Speaking of Dolby Vision<\/a>, the LG C5 is well catered for in terms of HDR; the set supports HDR10, Dolby Vision<\/a> and HLG<\/a>, with only HDR10+ absent.<\/p>\n Streaming options are ample, also, with LG\u2019s reliable webOS 25 supporting the likes of Netflix<\/a>, Disney Plus, Apple<\/a> TV+, Amazon Prime Video<\/a>, BBC iPlayer<\/a> and ITVX. There’s an Xbox app, too, for game streaming, as well as the new ability to pair a controller over Bluetooth.<\/p>\n Sound is a bit of a disappointment, with the 2.2-channel 40W speaker system lacking definition even in Cinema mode. This is nothing that can’t be remedied with a decent soundbar, though.<\/p>\n As our five-star review shows, we already thought the 48-inch LG C5 was an excellent value at full price. Now with \u00a3618 off at Hughes, it’s a bargain.<\/p>\n MORE:<\/p>\n Read our full 48-inch LG C5<\/a> review<\/p>\n Check out the best TVs<\/a>: flagship OLEDs and budget Mini LED sets, tried and tested<\/p>\n
